HELLO!

it was great talking to you all on Christmas :) so good. But then it didnt seem real. I feel like it was just another email haha. Some missionaries were a little sad after calling home but i was just ready to work! Thanks for not making me home sick or anything haha. I forgot to ask you how the chocolate was going! What has happened? You are great moM!

So hmmm i feel like i already told you everyrthing that happened this week.....ummm oh well we ate our christmas pancakes with chop sticks...that was special haha. Then we...oh we made pumpkin cookies! THEY WERE DELISH! I will never take those for granted again :) Oh and for Christmas Eve dinner we went to mcdonnalds. haha EVERYONE eATS IT! it is like the "cool" place to be. So do as the chinese do hai mh hai?

so we have a new investigator named Jessica. She is about 40 and it just funny. She works at some kind of water place....like they put exrta hydrogen in the water and then they call it "Holy Water". They say that it will help your stomach and something else..(I didnt understand the chinese when she said the rest) haha but she decided to give sister Johnson and I some for Christmas. Then she told us we had to drink it within 24 hours. I just thought it was so funny. So that was my christmas present this year! oh and she gave us a rubber water bottle too. It is so hard to drink out of. It just folds on over. Some things they have here in China are so unique.

President Hawks also talked to me this week and told me that his brother just bought a house in Eagar and he will be moving there. SWEET! He is also less active and thinks that President Hawks being a mission president is the stupidest thing he has ever heard (in president Hawks words). So that is my challenge to you! FIND HIM! and GET HIM BACK TO THE CHURCH! Any brother of This mission president has got to be pretty amazing as well. He also told me that his brother needs to see a doctor...so there ya go. 2 birds with one stone :) ill trust that you 2 will take care of that for us haha.

Well i dont have much more to say! OH! other than we met with Ngh Siuje this week and ok it was the best thing ever. The first time we met her she didnt know who Jesus Christ was. She had no clue about religion and it was just a shock to me that she didnt have that little knowledge. So we have been meeting with her for about 2 months now and we decided to teach her about faith. We also watched the Joseph Smith movie and focused on the faith of this young man. Her 2 kids were so amazing and they always bring the spirit. Then at the end we asked her is she believed in Christ and if she believed that Joseph Really saw Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ. SHE SAID SHE DOES!!!!!!!!!!!! :) :) :) :) what a miracle.  I love er!
